Cooking vs Restaurants

[Spongebob]

Many people think that that shit is cute. If I lived alone, I wouldn't even have a TV in the house. I didn't, before I was married. Beyond public broadcasting, most TV programming is just a wasteland, afaiac.

I couldn't disagree more.  Now, more than ever before, there are vastly more and better quality scripted shows available.  Now I'm mostly referring to streaming services.  Network TV has improved greatly since I was a kid but it is not even in the race compared to streaming.  Ironically, though, my two favorite shows and what I consider the best TV dramas ever created were carried by a small network called AMC.  I'm referring to Breaking Bad and Mad Men.
